Solid Tumors Using Ixabepilone and Dasatinib
NCT00717704 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
Patients are being asked to take part in this study because they have been diagnosed with an advanced solid tumor that is not responding to standard treatments. This study will find the highest dose of ixabepilone and dasatinib in combination that can be given without causing severe side effects. Both ixabepilone and dasatinib have individually been tested in many (several thousand) patients, however the combination of the two drugs has not yet been tested in humans. All patients who will take part in this study will receive combined drug therapy of dasatinib and ixabepilone. Dasatinib is a pill that is taken by mouth. Ixabepilone is a medicine that will be given by vein (IV). All participants will receive ixabepilone by vein once every three weeks as well as dasatinib by mouth once daily.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT00717704
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT00717704 describes a study currently listed as completed. It is categorized as Phase 1, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 19 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Medstar Health Research Institute, which has 130 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 1 condition, with Solid Tumor appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 2 interventions — of which Dasatinib is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT00717704 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include District of Columbia. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
